Da Lat in purple flamboyant season
PANO - Da Lat, the tourism capital city of Lam Dong province, Vietnam is the most beautiful, attractive and romantic in March, the month of purple flamboyant blossoms.
Purple flamboyant season in Da Lat
The flamboyant flowers are in full bloom along Nguyen Thi Minh Khai street, leading to Da Lat market, only a five-minute walk from Xuan Huong Lake. The season lasts from early March till late April annually.
Blossoming purple flamboyants can also be found near the roundabout – the center of the city as well as other famous landscapes in Da Lat such as Truc Lam Temple and the Valley of Love.
The flowers are around the bank of Xuan Huong Lake, which is considered the symbol of Da Lat. Next to the lake is a pine forest and several flower gardens.
A visitor is taking photos of the flowers. “Purple flamboyant season in Da Lat attracts a lot of visitors and at the same covers the city with a sense of melancholy,” said photographer Tran Quang Anh.
The corner of Nguyen Van Cu street is tinged with colorful flowers and sunshine in March. The purple flamboyant originated from South America. The very first trees were planted in Da Lat by Engineer Luong Van Sau. He was one of the first Vietnamese agricultural engineers to receive formal training in flowers and graduated from Versailles Agricultural School in France.
The flower has a tubular shape and blossoms in bunches. Their petals are around 4-5cm in length. In 1962, Engineer Sau brought flamboyant seeds to Vietnam and planted them in Da Lat.
Flamboyant trees are around 10-15m in height.
